I have seen and been around deaf schools education programs is not that great. Sorry to say that most deaf schools don't always follow the same educations level as normal hearing students have. :-)
That has begun to change somewhat in recent times. Many, if not most, now follow the public school curriculum. Part of that is because many deaf kids now attend deaf schools out of their public school home districts.
